Hi Corey,First of all, congrats on the success.I do think it is in your best interest to leverage these properties right now, with rates dropping we will see more demand in the market in 2025-2026.You have a few options on something like this.You can do a blanket loan and cash out on the entire portfolio, you'd save a little bit on fees here and there; or you can do individual cash out refinances.I strongly recommend doing them individually if you can.

Is it possible to do the above stated method through turbotax or do I HAVE TO use a CPA or other tax professional?

Does anyone have any personal experience when it comes to refinancing their properties?

It is great that you are doing some due diligence before jumping in.

Don't depend on others to do it for you. 

Did you buy this home off the market yourself or through the MLS?

I have a 9-5 that I want out of but want to secure at least my first property prior to leaving it.

But that is just what I heard from 1 person, I never researched it so I don't know any more about it.

I'm not sure if it's too late to go back and change it now or not, but would you recommend land appraisal it at this point, or do I have enough supporting evidence to use 6%? 

You can shoot me a DM to chat, I do a lot of work in the SoCal area..
